Kracked (003/365)

*~*~*

After putting in 4 hours of work today (month end, quarter end, year end, annual audit period - yuck!!!), the only other thing I felt like doing was making some krack (see this post for recipe).

I made 4 bags - 2 bags with light brown sugar and 2 bags with dark brown sugar - I combined the finished product into one gigantic mix and refilled the empty puffed corn bags.

One bag is being sent to MonkeyBoy, one bag is going to DramaQueen, and the other two bags are staying here.  

I would send one to my Dad, but the last time I did that, he told me not to do it again; the reason being he just eats the whole damn thing in one sitting and he doesn't want to have that temptation around!

We were invited to my cousin’s for dinner this evening.  I was told I didn’t need to bring anything, but I don’t like going empty-handed.  So I decided to bring this – it’s called “Krack” because it’s so addicting.  If you would like to try it, here is the recipe to make your own Krack:

1 large bag of corn puffs
1/2 cup of butter (1 stick)
1/3 cup of dark corn syrup
1 cup of dark brown sugar
1 teaspoon of salt.

Melt butter, sugar, salt and corn syrup in a sauce pan over medium heat.  Bring to a boil.  Boil for 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
Place corn puffs in large bowl. Pour mixture over corn puffs and stir to coat.
Spread coated puffs on a cookie sheet in a single layer.  Bake at 275 degrees for 25 minutes.  Stir and bake an additional 25 minutes.
Let cool and eat.
